WASHINGTON, March 12.—(UP) Senate opponents of extension of the Hatch “Clean Politics” Act to state employes paid with federal funds threatened today to debate the bill “for a couple of weeks.” The filibuster threat by Assistant Democratic Leader Sherman D. Minton. D., Ind., followed his failure to side-track temporarily the proposal of Sen. Carl A. Hatch. D., N. M., author of the original act. Said yes-
j terday, the Senate refused to lay it ! aside and consider the agriculture
j department appropriation bill.
I Minton and his followers, still con- | fident, planed to support an amendI ment to be offered today by Sen. Edj win C. Johnson, D., Colo. It would I provide that the prohibition of “peri nicious political activity" by federal
employes, as contained in the origin-

NEW MENU NOTE Here’s a new suggestion and a pretty tasty one at that—a casserole dish of hard cooked eggs and delicious creamy cooked macaroni and cheese Arrange thin layers of the macaroni, which is done up in tins all ready to serve, and slices of hard cooked eggs alternately in a buttered casserole. Let’s say you use 4 eggs—keeping out 1 yolk for a garnish—and 1 can of the macaroni and cheese. You sprinkle each layer of egg with salt and pepper—but don’t bother seasoning the macaroni because it’s flavored perfectly as it is. The top layer should be macaroni and on that you sprinkle the egg yolk put through a little sieve and mixed with 4 tablespoons grated cheese. Bake for 20 minutes in an oven that’s just so-so—not too hot and not too cold—about 375“ F., if you want to be technical.
CREOLE STYLE BAKED BEANS If this is one of those Fridays when you’re cudgeling your brain for a meatless menu and everything you hit on seems uninspired, how about a baked bean supper? You know, a big pot of oven-baked beans makes a mighty easy meal to prepare. That statement would sound funny to your grandmother now, wouldn’t it ? It used to take her a couple of days to get a bubbling crock of beans ready for the family. But nowadays, skilled professional cooks do ali this work for you. They wash and cull the beans and bake them through and through, ’til every last bean is mealy and full of real roasted oven flavor. Then they drench these beans with the most piquant sauce that ever scented an old-fashioned kitchen and pack them in tins ali ready to heat and serve. You can surely build a lot of mighty fine meals around these vegetarian oven-baked beans just as they come from the tin. Or, if you’d like to dress the pot up a bit with a few « xtra touches, try adding onion and green pepper slivers, and a cup of stewed .omatoes. Here’s how: BAKED BEANS, CREOLE STYLE Brown—

Pour over top— 1 cup canned or stewed tomatoes. Sprinkle with— 1 teaspoon sugar. Bake in a hot oven (425° F.) about 30 minutes, or until the tomatoes thicken. (Serves 5.)
SCHOOL-DAY SPAGHETTI When teacher finally says th* words, “Class dismissed," you can be sure your youngsters won’t loiter on the way home if they know there’s a big platterful of spaghetti waiting for them. Spicy spaghetti served in a nippy tomato and cheese sauce and studded with stout meat balls. It’s a sure-fire filler-upper for school appetites, and takes just a little of your tinu to prepare when you use the ready-to-serve spaghetti that comes done up in tins. All you have to do is spoon the spaghetti into • saucepan or casserole and heat on top of the stove or in the oven. Then for extra heft and savor, make these quick trick meat balls, and you’ll serve a luncheon dish that has what it takes to carry a lad or his sister through the afternoon: COOKED SPAGHETTI WITH MEAT BALLS Combine, then mix well— 1 lb. ground round steak Vz lb. ground pork ’3 cup rice flakes 2 teaspoons salt Vi teaspoon red pepper sauce '■i teaspoon Worcestershire sauce Vi cup thin cream or top milk Small portion of Vi cup (i medium) chopped onion.

Pour spaghetti into heated serving casserole and arrange the meat balls over top. Sprinkle with grated cheese, if desired, or serve cheese separately. (Serves 6 to 8.) Note: After meat balls are browned, they may be placed in bottom of baking dish, covered with spaghetti, sprinkled with cheese, then baked until dun*.

p. m. Symphony No. 3 by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, third son of the famous Johann Sebastin Bach, will open the program Thursday. The younger Bach has a tendency towards formal construction, but not to such an extent as to spoil the artistic form. The last number is a Serenade by a pupil of Robert Schumann, Friedtick Volkmann. Volkmann composed a variety of selections, many of them with a Hungarian gypsy flavor. Two modem compositions will complete the program. Earl Elgar’s beautiful Serenade, opus 20, is an example of the emotional sensitivity of this cosmopolitan composer, whose whole life has been a gradual and progressive self-emancipation from the limitations of inherited style. The Four Pieces, opus 44. by Paul Hindemith, which will be presented by the string symphony, are more indicative of the innovations of tone and rhythm in modern music. Hindemith, a German whose works are now banned by the Third Reich, has been called, “the playboy of modern music.” but has said himself that his purpose is to make modem music accessible to the masses of common people. Patience Thompson Berg is con-cert-mistress of the string symphony and Edward Shadbolt is pianist.

V isit May Lead To Consolidation
ROME, March 12—(UP)—Authoritative Italian quarters hinted today that the visit to Rome of German Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop might lead to closer Ital-ian-German economic collaboration throughout eastern Europe. It was intimated that present cooperation might be extended through the Danubian and Balkan countries and that eventually Russia and even the Baltic countries might be included. As the first step, Fe. Karl Clodius, Germany’s ace economic negotiator remained here after the departure of Ribbentrop last night and it was understood that half a dozen other German trade experts had arrived here to aid him in discussing increased Italo-German cooperation. The first step in any ambitious schemes for eastern European cooperation would be to consolidate Italian-German ties and clarify the Italian and German commercial relations with Balkan and Danubian countries.
SOME DEBATE Gregor Sido of Granite City, III., and Fred Tewell of Lebanon argued the affirmative of a mock debate in DePauw student chapel Tuesday on ‘Resolved: That ice cream has done more for civilization than soap.” However the chapel audience, by their applause, confirmed the realistic arguments of the negative team composed of James Byrne, Aurora, 111.; and John Bartholomew, Laj Grange, 111. 1 Sido and Tewell consumed Icecream sodas while resting from their speeches, in which they tried to show that ice-cream fosters romance. Byrne spoke from a soap-box and denounced his opponents’ departure from the fundamental old-Jashioncd virtues of soap. Cloid Green, Sioux Falls, S. D„ was chairman of the debate. All participants are members of the DePauw freshman debate team coached bv Ray Myers.
